<p>I have a few questions regarding the econ major at Cal:</p>
<li>Do UGBA 101a and UGBA 101b satisfy the econ 100a and econ 100b reqs?</li>
<li>Is Intermediate econ theory basically an upper div. econ class?</li>
<li>What does it mean that econ is capped? Does it mean that they only accept a quota of students each year? So would it be harder to apply for the major during the summer as most spots are filled in the spring?</li>
<li>As a business intended student, I realized I should have been more careful about planning for econ as a backup. Now entering my second year, I still need to take econ 1, 100a, 100b, and the intermediate econ theory class. What would be the best way to juggle all these econ classes?</li>
</ol>
<p>Thanks</p>

<li>No</li>
<li>Look at the course number, 100+ is upper division.</li>
<li>Econ is impacted major, more applications for admission are received during the priority filing period than the campus can accommodate.</li>
<li>100a and 100b subject matter doesn’t really overlap so both can be taken at once. Econ 1 is dumbed down mix of both 100a and 100b. Just don’t take too many at once.</li>

<li>Depends: If you took UGBA 101a before Summer 2009, it counts. UGBA 101b still counts as of right now.</li>
<li>Yes, it is. But you still need your other econ upper div electives.</li>
<li>You need to apply and can be rejected. No, they have a GPA standard.</li>
<li>Take Econ 1 Fall. Take Econ 100a Spring. You only need 1 intermediate course to declare.</li>
